WILLIS W. HOLLOWAY AND JOHN A. MQOAIN, OF OARROLLTON, GEORGIA.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 224,689, dated February 17, 1880. Application filed August 2, 1879.

. To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that we, WILLIS W. HoLLo- WAY and JOHN A. MCCAIN, of Oarrollton, in the county of Carroll and State of Georgia, have invented certain new and useful Improvementsin Washing-Machines; and we do hereby declare that the following is'a full, clear, and exact description of the construction and operation of the same, reference being bad to the annexed drawings, making a part of this specification, and to the letters and figures of reference marked thereon.

Figure 1 of the drawiu gs is a representation of a longitudinal section of our Washing-inachine, and Fig. 2 is a vertical sectional view. of the same.

This invention relates to animproveme'nt in boiler washing-machines, suchxas that shown in Patent No. 208,990; and it consists in the construction and arrangement of parts as will be hereinafter described and claimed.

The object in view is to strengthen the heads of the rotary cylinder, and also, by a novel arrangement of ribs and tubes, to facilitate the washing of clothes.

Let A designate the boiler; b, the stopcock for drawing off the suds; O, the boiler-cover, and d the funnel located in the upper portion of said cover.

The rotary cylinder E is suitably mounted upon a shaft, j, which is provided with a crank haIidle, as usual. The pipes g are perforated, as usual, but, instead of passing through the heads of the cylinder, connect at their ends with the funnel-shaped tubes h,

which are set against the inner faces of the cylinder-heads and open at the periphery or outer face of the cylinder, as herein shown.

Each one of the heads I is made of cast iron or equivalent metal, with a flange, 2 and to these flanges the cylinder is bolted along its end edges, whereby broad bearing-surfaces are afiorded for the cylinder ends and all liability N represents the usual door of the cylinder,

and 01) the hasps and staples, pins or keys q beingprovided for locking the same together.

Having thus described our invention, what we claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-

In a boiler washing-machine, the funnelshaped tubes h, extending from the perforated tubes 9 to the face of the cylinder, as specified.

In testimony that we claim the above we have hereunto subscribed our names in the presence of two witnesses.
